COMMUNITY Life & Prayer | Week of September 23

I am re-posting last week's posting as this week's because people have already commented on it for this week!As I (Scott) reflected upon Gene's sermon on the early part Acts 6 and on our response in repentance (thank you, Rod), the following passage came to mind (if you weren't there on Sunday, check out the teaching in the teaching blog [up soon!]:


Colossians 3:12Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.


Continue to pray for Sarah and her family as her father is terminally ill, and for Lindzie and her family as they deal with her mom's illness.
Continue to pray for one another through the prayer map (please let me know if you need your profile updated!).
And of course, please post your prayer requests/praises/stories/...

COMMUNITY LIFE & PRAYER | September 11 Week


Let's pray the prayer of John Wesley throughout this week, for us where we are, and for TILT as a community and the Church throughout Toronto and Canada:

Let the inspiration of the Holy Spirit prepare and assist me in all the duties of this, Your sacred day. That my wandering thoughts may all be fixed on You, my devotion centered upon You, and my apathy quickened into longing for and thirsting after You.

Let me join in the prayers and praises of Your Church with committed and holy passion. Let me hear Your Word with listening ears and a determination to obey it. And when I approach Your altar, the tree upon which Jesus died, pour into my heart humility, faith, hope, love and a holy character which reflects the crucified Saviour.

Let me make use of this entire day to the ends for which it was intended, doing what must be done but also living out mercy, in prayer, praise and meditation; and let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart be always pleasing in Your sight.
Amen.

The prayer map, as always, is a great way to pray for one another.

COMMUNITY LIFE & PRAYER | September 3 Week

"Grant us, Your servants, the courageous confidence we need to go ahead and
proclaim Your message while You reach out Your hand to heal people, enabling
us to perform signs and wonders through the name of Your holy servant Jesus" - the prayer of the community of believers in Acts 4, displayed in God's power in Acts 5:12-16. As we prayed on Sunday, we continue to pray this for our community, for revival at the hand of God, using us as His instruments.

The prayer map is a great way to pray for one another. You can still be added!

As always, please add prayer requests by clicking on "COMMENTS" below or go here...
